The Israeli occupation forces have closed Al-Masjid Al-Ibrahimi in Hebron in the south of the West Bank, and prevented the citizens from performing their prayers in the mosque in preparation for the settlers’ break-ins under the pretext of the so-called “Sarah’s Saturday festival”. 

They have also closed the entrance of Bab Al-Zawiya and the citizens’ shops to secure the settlers’ break-ins into the Tomb of the Patriarchs to perform their Taldmudic Rituals.

The colonial settlers usually storm the Tomb of the Patriarchs four times in a year with protection from the Israeli occupation police, who closes all Palestinian shops in the old town.
